Vino, check it out at www.slowtrav.com, a noncommercial website with many Tuscan B&B reviews.

Hi vinorosso were you able to find anything out about this place? I looked it up and could not find anything except for its own website.

Hello, no I did not find anything else, I did end up booking it though, and the owner has emailed me information and has been very friendly.

I was able to get it for two nights in September as well. It looks very nice so worth a shot I'd say.

vinorosso,
I followed your advice, looked up this place, and although I did not find much information, I am making reservation for Sept 22, 23. The fairy-tale atmosphere (as one site put it) of music and vineyards together with perfect location and reasonable price seem to be worth it. Will you be there by any chance?
How about you, aaireland?

vinorosso:

I am so sorry that I never answered your question about Il Paradisso di Frassina on the other thread.

I am glad that you did go ahead and book it, and from the looks of it a few others have as well! I am thrilled for all of you, I am sure you will enjoy the location and the hosts - and the wine!

Although, as I mentioned previously, I have not personally stayed there, I would certainly consider it for a country location. I did see (peek into, really) a few interior spaces (the kitchen and living room)and they looked very charming and truly Tuscan. The pictures from their website (interior and exterior) of what I have personally seen are good and true representations. I would assume that the guestrooms and other spaces I didn't have the opportunity to see are represented in the same manner.

You must post your thoughts of the accommodations when you return since there is such limited information/feedback/reviews available.

Buon viaggio!
